I love it when kids do things like that. Shows their true heart. :-) My DS bought his siblings a lollypop each at the football on Saturday (they weren't there) with his own money. I thought that was so sweet and thoughtful too.<br/><br/>Madly Saving - that's a fantastic idea! I occasionally write my children a little note to tell them I love them or to thank them for a job well done. I know they'd love a poem. We get so stilted by our need for perfection don't we - and yet kids are so accepting. I'm going to use this idea - thanks for sharing. That’s so beautiful about the Rocky Road sharing.

Kids really know how to unashamedly display their love. Your last 2 posts have made me think about that perhaps we as adults should do so more than we do! Let's face it - when was the last time we wrote our kids a poem about how much we love them? I think they would think that pretty cool too! Madly Saving That is priceless!

Its always amazing what kids come up with! Enjoy it!! Recently my youngest son wanted to go shopping with my hubby one night after taking the other one to youth group, and when he came home he had used a large part of some of his pocket money savings to buy a block of rocky road chocolate to share! He secretly broke it into pieces and presented them on a nice china plate. He is so thoughtful and loves to give! He is blessed by blessing others! Kids are great examples arent they?
